Advanced Benchmarks: FarCry, Doom 3

Real-time
editing, bump mapping, static lights, network system, integrated physics system,
shaders, shadows, and a dynamic music system are just some of the state
of-the-art features that the CryENGINE offers. The game was set to Ultra quality
and the Ubisoft's Regulator and Training demos were run.

AA/AF performance of the MSI RX1800XT-VT2D512E
is very good, this videocard will certainly keep hardcore gamers happy who like
to turn on all the eye candy.

Doom 3
takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing
power of the CPU to its absolute limits. At its highest setting, Ultra quality,
texture sizes pass the 500MB mark which means even tomorrow's videocards will
have a hard time running everything. The frame rates in the game itself are
locked at 60 fps so anything above that
point is wasted. Each test is run three times and with the third run being
recorded.

Performance with AA+AF enabled is very good.
Even with Doom 3 in High Quality mode and running a resolution of 1600x1200, the
512MB-version MSI RX1800XT-VT2D512E kicks out some impressive frame rates.
